|  W551 Strip Card Help 
			
			Can anyone tell me if there are W551 strip cards with blue lettering that are original?  I see there is one on ebay now that was certified Authentic by PSA.   Link http://www.ebay.com/itm/1921-W551-St...item5ae9a13503 |

|  Not worth the risk... 
			
			I've been watching this one also. My initial gut reaction was that it is a reprint that slipped passed PSA and I am sticking with that assessment. ~Chris.

			I also agree that is probably a reprint that got past PSA.  Besides the lettering, I've never seen that kind of red "blotching" in front of a genuine card.  Usually, the image is crisper.  On the left is the "bad" card from the ebay auction referenced.  On the right is the card that I currently own, which should be genuine.

			Could this be another example of the card being switched in the holder?  We've seen that before.  Thanks. AndyH .

 Either way, the ebay card screams, "Stay away!".
